Homer and Collective Memory: the End of the Odyssey
Homer and Collective Memory: The End of the Odyssey This paper will approach the end of the Odyssey (starting at 24.412) by using the interpretive tools that research on collective memory has presented to us. This approach ultimately will enable us to better understand the self-awareness of the Odyssey. Building on the work of Maurice Halbwachs and Pierre Nora, research in practically every discipline of the humanities has directed its attention to the role collective memory plays in the shaping of how all kinds of sociological groups perceive themselves and their surroundings in terms of how they perceive their past, how they assess their present situation and what plans they are making for their future. This theoretical approach is also applied in Classics - not limited to, but especially in ancient history. Studies in classical literature should also avail themselves more of the tools that researchers have developed for the study of the role and the behavior of collective memories. The key for this paper will be Od. 24.484f. Zeus promises Athena that the gods will make the people of Ithaca forget that brothers and children were slain. Then, Zeus claims, people will be friends again. At the moment of this prophecy, Ithaca is at the verge of civil war. Eupeithes is trying to gather an alliance for the sake of punishing Odysseus for having lost so many comrades while he was away and for having killed all of the suitors who were members of noble families. Not all of the citizens of Ithaca want to join Eupeithes since Halitherses in particular reminds the Ithacans of the guilt of the suitors. -

THE ODYSSEY OF HOMER TRANSLATED INTO ENGLISH BLANK VERSE BOOK I ARGUMENT In a council of the Gods, Minerva calls their attention to Ulysses, still a wanderer. They resolve to grant him a safe return to Ithaca. Minerva descends to encourage Telemachus, and in the form of Mentes directs him in what manner to proceed. Throughout this book the extravagance and profligacy of the suitors are occasionally suggested. Muse make the man thy theme, for shrewdness famedAnd genius versatile, who far and wideA Wand’rer, after Ilium overthrown,Discover’d various cities, and the mindAnd manners learn’d of men, in lands remote.He num’rous woes on Ocean toss’d, endured,Anxious to save himself, and to conductHis followers to their home; yet all his carePreserved them not; they perish’d self-destroy’dBy their own fault; infatuate! who devoured10The oxen of the all-o’erseeing Sun,And, punish’d for that crime, return’d no more.Daughter divine of Jove, these things record,As it may please thee, even in our ears.The rest, all those who had perdition ’scapedBy war or on the Deep, dwelt now at home;Him only, of his country and his wifeAlike desirous, in her hollow grotsCalypso, Goddess beautiful, detainedWooing him to her arms. -

The Suitors' Take: Manners and Power in Ithaka

Lateiner: The Suitors' Take: Manners and Power in Ithaka The Suitors' Take: Manners and Power in Ithaka by DONALD LATEINER 1. Introduction HIS ESSAY EXAMINES "give and take" behaviors of the suitors, men of T acknowledged stature still inadequately examined by modern critics. The approach owes a debt to the social or human "sciences" of social psychology, historical anthropology, and comparative economics. I employ categories of nonverbal behavior, of social order and face-to-face interaction, and models of distributive reciprocity including gift-exchange. These tools for analyzing practices and habits that structure communities less and more complex than our own clarify heroic power and prestige and their absence. 1 These pages explore institutions of ubiquitous influence, characters of some depth, and situations ofsufficient complexity and significance. This exploration of elite ideology, of "what goes without saying," these quotidian values with which all comply complaint-free, shows how those in power "extortthe essential while seeming to demand the insignificant." It also addresses lesser phenomena, gestures and apparently off-handed comments in a carefully plotted text. This is a narrative "one of whose central themes.. -

Cosmopolitan Ethics and the Limits of Tolerance: Representing the Holocaust in Young Adult Literature
COSMOPOLITAN ETHICS AND THE LIMITS OF TOLERANCE: REPRESENTING THE HOLOCAUST IN YOUNG ADULT LITERATURE Rachel L. Dean-Ruzicka A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY August 2011 Committee: Dr. Beth Greich-Polelle, Advisor Dr. Nancy W. Fordham Graduate Faculty Representative Dr. Kimberly Coates Dr. Vivian Patraka © 2011 Rachel L. Dean-Ruzicka All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Beth Greich-Polelle, Advisor This dissertation critically evaluates the concepts of tolerance and toleration and how these two ideas are often deployed as the appropriate response to any perceived difference in American culture. Using young adult literature about the Holocaust as a case study, this project illustrates how idealizing tolerance merely serves to maintain existing systems of power and privilege. Instead of using adolescent Holocaust literature to promote tolerance in educational institutions, I argue that a more effective goal is to encourage readers’ engagement and acceptance of difference. The dissertation examines approximately forty young adult novels and memoirs on the subject of the Holocaust. Through close readings of the texts, I illustrate how they succeed or fail at presenting characters that young adults can recognize as different from themselves in ways that will help to destabilize existing systems of power and privilege. I argue this sort of destabilization takes place through imaginative investment with a literary “Other” in order to develop a more cosmopolitan worldview. Using the theories of Judith Butler, Kwame Anthony Appiah, and Gerard Delanty I contended that engagement with and appreciation of difference is possible when reading young adult Holocaust literature. -

S Mythological Network
RESEARCH ARTICLE The Odyssey's mythological network Pedro Jeferson Miranda1, Murilo Silva Baptista2, Sandro Ely de Souza Pinto1* 1 Department of Physics, State University of de Ponta Grossa, ParanaÂ, Brazil, 2 Institute for Complex System and Mathematical Biology, SUPA, University of Aberdeen, Aberdeen, United Kingdom * [email protected] Abstract In this work, we study the mythological network of Odyssey of Homer. We use ordinary sta- a1111111111 a1111111111 tistical quantifiers in order to classify the network as real or fictional. We also introduce an a1111111111 analysis of communities which allows us to see how network properties shall emerge. We a1111111111 found that Odyssey can be classified both as real and fictional network. This statement is a1111111111 supported as far as mythological characters are removed, which results in a network with real properties. The community analysis indicated to us that there is a power-law relation- ship based on the max degree of each community. These results allow us to conclude that Odyssey might be an amalgam of myth and of historical facts, with communities playing a OPEN ACCESS central role.

Literary Plastination: from Body’S Objectification to the Ontological Representation of Death, Differences Between Sick-Literature and Tales by Amateur Writers
LITERARY PLASTINATION: FROM BODY’S OBJECTIFICATION TO THE ONTOLOGICAL REPRESENTATION OF DEATH, DIFFERENCES BETWEEN SICK-LITERATURE AND TALES BY AMATEUR WRITERS INES TESTONI GIULIA PARISE UNIVERSITY OF PADOVA EMILIO PAOLO VISINTIN UNIVERSITY OF LAUSANNE ADRIANO ZAMPERINI LUCIA RONCONI UNIVERSITY OF PADOVA This article presents a qualitative analysis of published and unpublished texts, aimed to understand a new narrative phenomenon named “sick-lit.” This is a genre of stories, written by professional novel- ists, rooted in disease, self-harm, suicide, sufferance from violence, death, and dying. In the Internet it has been considered as a trivialization of serious issues and even potentially encouraging readers to harm themselves. Our hypothesis is that this negative judgment is based on the ontological representa- tion of death and the objectification of the body depicted in these stories. In order to inquire into this possibility and to compare this anomalous form of story-telling with another kind of narration reflect- ing the wider common sensibility, a qualitative analysis was realized on six sick-lit novels (SLNs) and 21 unpublished tales written by amateur writers (AWTs). The results confirm the hypothesis: the SLNs represent death also as an absolute annihilation and the body is always reified through medical lan- guage, while the AWTs represent death only as a passage or reincarnation and the description of the de- teriorated body is minimal. Key words: Sick-lit; Ontological representation of death; Plastination; Death education; Grounded Theory Model.
